Recombinant fowl poxviruses (rFPVs) were constructed to express genes from serotype 1 Marek's disease virus (MDV) coding for glycoproteins B, E, I, H, and UL32 (gB1, gE, gI, gH, and UL32). An additional rFPV was constructed to contain four MDV genes (gB1, gE, gI, and UL32). These rFPVs were evaluated for their ability to protect maternal antibody-positive chickens against challenge with highly ...

Gastrointestinal (GI) manifestations of BD are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, as mucosal inflammation and large vessel dis...

Abstract Gastrointestinal (GI) graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major barrier in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The metabolite retinoic acid (RA) potentiates GI-GVHD mice via alloreactive T cells expressing the RA receptor-α (RARα), but role of RA-responsive human remains undefined. Therefore, we used conventional and novel sequential immunostaining flow cy...

Drug delivery across the skin is used for several millennia to ease gastrointestinal (GI) ailments in Traditional Persian Medicine (TPM). TPM topical remedies are generally being applied on the stomach, lower abdomen, lower back and liver to alleviate GI illnesses such as dyspepsia, gastritis, GI ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal worms and infections. The aim of the present study i...

Background and AimsGastrointestinal (GI) dysmotility is a common debilitating clinical manifestation in patients with mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)–related disease no curative few effective symptomatic therapies. A low-residue diet (LRD) has been shown to be at reducing bowel urgency, pain, distension functional GI-related conditions. We assessed tolerability effects of an LRD on habits mtDNA-relat...

Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to assess whether serum cytokine levels correlate with clinical periodontal parameters in health or disease. Materials and Methods Male subjects (40–60 years) CP (n = 30), + CHD healthy controls 20) had plaque index (PLI), gingival (GI), bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth (PPD), attachment level (CAL) evaluated. Serum IL-1? IL-6 were quantifie...

the main inflammatory bowel disorders are including celiac disease (cd), inflammatory bowel diseases (ibd) and irritable bowel syndrome (ibs). celiac disease is a digestive and autoimmune disorder that can damage the small intestine and characterized by a multitude gastrointestinal (gi) and extra gi symptoms. ibd (including ulcerative colitis and crohn’s disease) is a group of inflammatory cond...
